"I was very pleased except they seemed a bit short-staffed at night. There were few RNs and they were stretched thin at night. Of course, all hospitals are short of RNs. I was also really pissed the first two nights because I was awoken every couple of hours for blood drawing and/or blood pressures. Sleep deprivation is torture! Other than that, I was very, very pleased with this hospital. I highly recommend it, Susan Martinez, and Dr. Irani. "
"This is the best tasting and least expensive alternative I can find to those gross protein powders. It contains 40 grams filtered whey isolate protein, no sugars or carbs, and comes in four flavors. I prefer the Fruit Punch flavor. It counts towards your fluid/clear liquid intake as each bottle is 20 ounces. It tastes better really cold or over ice. You can make popsicles out of it, too! The best price is from http://www.vitalglo.com - $55.00 for a case of 20 bottles = $2.75 per bottle. I strongly recommend this product for those who can't stomach the powders. And it's always ready to drink - no mixing! Comes in plastic bottles like sports drinks. "
"Dr. Irani ans his staff are great. So is the Mercy Hospital Bariatric Coordinator, Susan Martinez. I had all my tests & insurance approval in less than 8 weeks. I highly recommend using Mercy Hospital Bariatrics and Dr. Irani over the other practices in Bakersfield. "
